I recently bought a digital camera which has a USB adapter and uses compactflash for storage. And I was wondering what the best printer under $400 for printing photos is? I aready have a text printer on my network so text speed/quality doesn't really matter.

Also, while I'm on the subject of Digital Camera's I was wondering if it is possible to take photos directly off a Digital Camera and put it on a PDA or Pocket PC. And if so what PDAs or Pocket PCs are capable of this.
While I'm at it what PDA or Pocket PC has the best bang for the buck. Thanks for all the help!

Ok man i just bought this printer like 3 months ago its the hp 1215 it was on sale at best buy this week for 300 i bought it for 400 3 months ago. Best Photo print i have seen i use it to print out my digital photos i take. They come out very crisp and clear!!!!! and use glossy paper for best looking pics. And pda i highly recommend the handspring visor deluxe or on up i just got the viso deluxe last week. It's awesome, plus you can get program called palmprint that will let oyu print directly form your visor to the hp1215 printer it is sooo sweet http://www.sharkyforums.com/ubb/smile.gif.Plus visor has TONSSSSS of expandability. and the Hp 1215 is cheap print to out about 1.00 to print 8x10(includes glossy paper cost & ink usage cost) at photoret3 quality which is great, but for those perfectionist it will let you print out at 2400x1200 dpi. Adn they Come out glimmerin. Hope this helps
